HELP.  I need some back up documentation that states that a person does not get to use the rest of their Medicare days if they discharge from Medicare bed with g-tube feeding that meets skilled criteria, before they use their 100 days.
 
It was my understanding that those days are not allowed back to you because you do not get a 60 day break of wellness as long as you are in a SNF and receive tube feedings that meet skilled criteria.
 
I need to educate billing dept and I know that they will want something in black and white before they will believe me. 
 
Does anyone know where I can access this info to show to billing dept.
 
Sorry this is long.  Thanks for help.
Michelle
